Top-Level Handball for a Good Cause: Charity Event Supporting “Help for Sick Children”
Doing good together: The sponsors of German Bundesliga handball team TUSSIES Metzingen are planning a special initiative for the home game against VfL Oldenburg on December 21 at the Paul Horn Arena in Tübingen. For every goal and every save by the “Pink Ladies”, a donation will go to the “Help for Sick Children” foundation of the University Hospital Tübingen.
For over 25 years, the "Help for Sick Children" foundation has ensured young patients receive top-quality treatment, counseling, and care – both during hospitalization and beyond.
It also supports the people who stand by a child’s side during this challenging time: doctors, nurses, psychologists, social workers, and family members.
The foundation promotes projects that go far beyond medical care: from child-friendly hospital facilities to psychosocial support for families, financing specialized medical equipment, and developing innovative care concepts.
The goal is to sustainably improve the quality of life for children and their families.
Every goal and every save counts – Charity campaign “Help for Sick Children”
To financially support the foundation’s work, the sponsors of Bundesliga handball team TUSSIES Metzingen have launched a special fundraising campaign for the game on December 21 at the Paul Horn Arena in Tübingen.
For every goal and every save by the home team, a fixed amount will be donated to the foundation.
The participating sponsors and the final donation amount will be announced on December 16.
Michael Rampf, CEO of the international RAMPF Group:
Supporting the ‘Help for Sick Children’ foundation is a heartfelt matter for the TUSSIES’ partners. Our region stands for solidarity and strong social commitment, and we are confident that many will join this initiative. We look forward to an exciting game and plenty of goals and saves from the ‘Pink Ladies’!
On game day, “Help for Sick Children” will be present at the Paul Horn Arena with an information booth, the clinic mascot, and interactive stations for all ages. Fans can enjoy top-level handball and learn more about the foundation’s work.
Thomas Hassel, Chairman of the ‘Help for Sick Children’ foundation at University Hospital Tübingen:
It’s more than support – it’s about giving sick children a future. Every donation shows that social responsibility isn’t just a concept, it changes lives. Sport builds community, and together we bring hope and new perspectives. Because sport can do more. Real help begins when people unite.
The home game of TUSSIES Metzingen against VfL Oldenburg at the Paul Horn Arena on Sunday, December 21, starts at 2:30 PM.
